He will be instant offense off an NBA bench somewhat of JR Smith, Jamal Crawford or Nick Young, maybe about 15 ppg. I can easily see him as a top 20 pick maybe even a lottery pick for GM's willing to gamble

lol at people saying he is a lot like Jamal Crawford. That should not be a surprise since Jamal is his brother and his game has a lot of similarities to his brother. Jamal i think is a inch or so taller and has better point guard skills.

as a Frosh at IU. He was obviously talented, but very raw. He used his redshirt year well. Still needs work on his shot selection and defensive intensity, but you can say that about many young players. A mid first rounder if he comes out next year. This year...lotto to late first, anywhere really.

He's not Jamal Crawford, and he's not J.R. Smith. He's similar to Flip Murray IMO. I don't think he'll be a starter, but I do think he can give you about 11 or 12 ppg at his best in the NBA off the bench.

Its funny what a tourney performance could do for a player. He's been playing like this the whole season really. A guy who can get his shot at any point. But I don't even think he was in the 2011 mocks before the A-10 tourney when . But yeah, the nba is always looking for those combo guys who can flat out score at the guard position in that stuckey, flip murray, jamal crawford molds. I still think he should come back, but the scouts and nba guys who are just blinded by a couple tourney games will prolly induce him into putting his name in. He should at least test the waters though, being that he's already 21 and older than most Juniors since he sat out the transfer year.

^^Thank you. He played good against Minnesota the other day and people started saying he was similar to Jamal Crawford and J.R. Smith. He's not that talented at all. He's good, but I've seen him play against Kansas State and he wasn't that impressive, he struggled in the A-10 tourny when I watched him too alot because he's not effective when he doesn't have the ball in his hands, and he's not as athletic or as long as Crawford or Smith. He's got the potential to be a bench scorer in the NBA, but I'd be SHOCKED if he lit up scoreboards the way Crawford and Smith are capable of doing. Anyone who thinks he's gonna be as good as J.R. Smith has only seen him play in the NCAA tourny.

Yeah those guys are elite level scorers in the nba. I think what people are saying is that he has that POTENTIAL to be that kind of bench scorer/sparkplug at the next level. He has the ability to seemingly get any shot he wants and is very difficult to stay in front of him, and his range is unlimited. His shot selection definitely needs to improve, cause he takes a lot of head scratcher shots. And of course, with his style of play he's due for a bad game or a poor shooting performance every once in a while.

I think that he has the physical abilities to have a long NBA career, but there might be enough red flags to keep him from rising up draft boards. The Indiana story from Sampson's final year has been said to go beyond cell phones and missed classes. Crawford and Armon Bassett might be at new schools, but those old questions still remain. Heck, Eric Gordon went out said plainly that the guys who got kicked off or transferred were abusing drugs and caused a rift on that team. I can't imagine that won't be a huge part of any pre-draft interview that teams have with him.Teams will be willing to take on a talented player with baggage, but I'm not sure they want to gamble with someone who isn't a sure thing.

JNixon called it when he said he is not as long or athletic when everybody thought he was a crazy athlete because of the Lebron dunk but he's not. His combine numbers were poor. His length is JJ Redick esque.
